Sounds like your stator. A new one for that sled is about 350 dollars or you might be able to get it fixed for about half that, if you can find a place that repairs them.
I tend to agree with Thundercat 900. Probably stator.

Unplug the wiring going into the stator.
There will be 2 yellows, a brown and either a black or purple wire in a 4 wire rubber plug.
On the wiring going into the stator, Take and run a jumper wire and jump the two wires together that aren't yellow and try to start it. If it runs you have a broken wire somewhere, if it doesn't, it is a bad stator.

you can pick up a used rewound stator for around 150$,,,, you find them on ebay all the time and its a company in Michigan that is doing it and they even guarentee the stator for a year I believe
